JUNO 02 By Arper
Design James Irvine, 2012 – New edition 2022
Ideal for outdoor applications, the Juno 02 collection is designed for both residential and contract settings, from hospitality spaces to the privacy of the home.
Thanks to a redesign of the mould, Juno 02 is made of recycled polypropylene obtained from post-industrial waste, in a four-leg chair version and in a restyled version with armrests, which maintains its elegant silhouette while using less material.
The chair is available in exposed plastic or with a seat cushion applied without using glue, providing greater comfort in indoor applications. All the versions are stackable for easy large-scale use and storage.
Juno 02 embodies new possibilities for plastic with a whisper, not a shout. In 2012, Juno redefined the plastic chair with the minimal gesture of its slim silhouette. Now, years later, Juno 02 reimagines this enduring expression in sustainable plastic and a new palette inspired by the natural world. At once elegant and efficient, simple and sleek, its subtle texture and finish bring refined materiality to the classic form.
Juno 02 recalibrates a timeless chair for a more sustainable future. Through material research, it is made at 70% with post-industrial recycled plastic with six expressive new colors intended for both residential and contract settings, and indoor and outdoor spaces. By retooling the mold, Juno 02 retains its sleek silhouette and strength but now requires less material than ever to produce. This lightweight, open-back chair is offered with and without arms, and in white, sage green, rust, turtledove gray, anthracite gray, and black. Comfortable and sturdy yet compact and stackable, Juno 02 is ideal for large-scale use, whether in hospitals, restaurants, offices, or public settings.
